They will be discussing potential job opportunities for students and giving an overview of some of the projects that they work on. The will also be eagerly accepting your resumes!

Please do come. A good showing of our students will be good for you, as you may land a slick new job, but also good for the department. If lots of us show up then they (and other employers) will be excited to come back and continually tap our talent pool.

Oh, and they are also providing pizza and soda. So you at least get a free meal out of it.

We at Fanzoo Technology in Ann Arbor are looking for a student in the Computer Science department to fill a position at our company. The applicant need not have professional experience, but must be willing to learn, have a drive for improving the company, and some knowledge of web development. Information about the position is available here:
www.FanzooTechnology.com/Careers

This is an excellent opportunity for a student to get hands-on experience and learn from seasoned developers in a fun, helpful environment. A student’s input and opinions will be valued, and hours can be flexible.

We would appreciate if you could pass on this job posting to the students in the Computer Science department and make them aware of the position.

Please forward this along to any students who might be interested. Thanks.

Greetings future EMU Computer Science alumni! My name is Leonard Kinnaird-Heether, and I am a graduate of the EMU Computer Science Department (B.S. ’05, M.S. ’08.) I am also an employee at Ford Motor Company, and I’m writing to inform you that Ford IT Ford College Graduate program is currently taking applications for employment starting in 2015.

The Ford College Graduate (FCG) program provides entry-level positions for recent graduates(of either a Bachelor’s, Master’s or Ph.D. program,) and is structured to allow new employees the ability to explore a variety of positions within IT at Ford Motor Company. Each FCG is allowed to participate in multiple year-long rotational assignments over their first few years with the company. This enables the new employee to sample various types of employment around the company, so that they may gain a better understanding of what direction they believe their career in IT should take. Because it is a program designed for recent grads, several start dates are offered over the course of the year to correspond with the most common graduation periods. The hiring process will begin very soon, so if you are interested please apply sooner than later.

You’re invited to a Special Kick-Off Meeting for the Women in Computer Science Club.

THIS WEDNESDAY @ 4pm
Pray-Harrold, Room 514

We’ll be explaining what our organization does, what our plans are for the year, and how you can get involved. This is a great opportunity for you to meet women in computer science and encourage more girls and women to get involved in our field.

Also, there will be delicious food.

Just to be clear, we don’t exclude men. If you are a man who supports the idea of getting more women involved with computer science, we’d love for you to come!
